Italian Bread Baked with Olive Oil and Oregano (Pane Originato)

Grandpa Tony prepared this baked bread often, especially for a meal featuring a vegetable frittata and a fresh tomato salad. It is fine made with a good loaf of Italian bakery bread, and even better with a homemade loaf. Sicilian semolina bread is especially delicious prepared in this way.
